Ghanaian youngster Kelvin Opoku Abrefa featured for Reading who unfortunately exited the Carabao Cup via a penalty shootout after drawing 2-2 with Championship high-fliers Ipswich Town.
Ruben Selles made eight changes from the side that lost 2-1 at Exeter City on Saturday, with the side averaging just 20 years of age.
Brandon Williams’ own goal gave Reading the lead inside two minutes but the youthful side struggled to keep pace with the second tier outfit and fell behind through two goals either side of half-time.
Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan dramatically levelled in the 88th minute, but three misses in spot kicks ended the club’s involvement in the League Cup for another year.
Abrefa, 19, was subbed in the 78th minute mark of the game after being replaced by Jeriel Dorsett while Ghana international Andrew Yiadom, replaced Matty Carson in the 46th mark of the game.
